3D Printing Of A Biocompatible Scaffold And A Real-Time Imaging Window For Monitoring Rat Spinal Cord Regeneration
… of effective regenerative therapies for spinal cord injury (SCI) remains limited by two critical challenges: the absence of structurally optimized bridging scaffolds and the inability to monitor biological integration in real time. Conventional experimental approaches rely primarily on …

Spinal cord regression via collagen entubulation
… effectiveness of the dorsal barrier in promoting spinal cord regeneration. Overall, the combination of wrap membrane and dorsal barrier (Group V) proved most effective in creating a hospitable environment for regenerative success.

The role of retinoids in the regeneration of the axolotl spinal cord
… effects may possess a significant role in the regeneration-permissive interaction of the meninges and ependyma of the Axolotl spinal cord after penetrating injury. During spinal cord regeneration in urodele amphibians, the pattern of retinoid production changes as the meninges interact with the …

Meningeal Fibrosis in the Axolotl Spinal Cord: Extracellular Matrix and Cellular Responses
Though mammalian spinal cord injury (SCI) has long been a topic of study, effective therapies that promote functional recovery are not yet available. The axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, is a valuable animal model in the investigation of spinal cord regeneration, as this urodele is able to achieve …

Characterisation of the pro-regenerative extracellular matrix in the zebrafish spinal cord
… (ECM) plays a fundamental role in the repair and regeneration of wounds to tissues throughout the body, including spinal cord injuries (SCIs). In this thesis I present a functional study of the effects of core ECM components on neuronal and glial cell behaviour in two models of SCI: the …

Biomaterials-tissue interaction of an injectable collagen-genipin gel in a rodent hemi-resection model of spinal cord injury
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a significant health issue resulting in life-long disability and associated secondary complications, affecting approximately 300,000 individuals in the United States. Primary barriers to functional recovery after SCI include the formation of a growth inhibitory astrocyte …

Thick Conducting Polymer Coatings for Safe Electric Field Delivery to the Spinal Cord
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that disrupts neural pathways in the central nervous system, resulting in sensorimotor dysfunction, loss of independence, and a significant reduction in quality of life. The societal and economic impact is substantial; in the United Kingdom alone, …
